I added the filter into swish. If both catdoc and wvWare are installed
it will use wvWare.
It does a nice job of creating HTML on some Word docs, but I had some
where it failed badly yet catdoc worked fine.
It's also a lot slower:
moseley@bumby:~$ time wvWare -1 /home/moseley/manual_11122002.doc > /dev/null
real 0m5.611s
user 0m5.600s
sys 0m0.010s
moseley@bumby:~$ time catdoc /home/moseley/manual_11122002.doc > /dev/null
real 0m0.066s
user 0m0.050s
sys 0m0.010s
And the output from wvWare fed into HTML tidy produced a lot of errors
and warnings.
So, beware.
$ wvWare --version
wvWare 0.7.3
